I got into Starwars at the age of 7 or so and got into it's lore, movies, books and about anything the Internet and my parents could get their hands on. I have read alot and know my facts when it comes to Starwars in alot of critical topics and am specifically interest in the time that SWTOR takes place in and studied it deeply before I even knew about SWTOR. I am a good source for lore and love to go into detail, but to do so here may require another thread

4. Please tell us about your other guild/MMO experiences. If there is more than one guild/experience, please include all of them. If you left your last guild, please tell us why you decided to leave. If you have used more than one name, please list them all.*

Guild Name (Reason for leaving if applies):-Game(s): SWG,EQ2,LOTRO,WOW,EVE,WHAOR-Name: To many to recall-Level: Lowest levels for my mains would be 20 in most-Server: Multiples-Class: Usually a Mage or a Rogue of some sort-Race: Rarily Human, Only one or two toons Human*I did just leave a SWTOR Guild called "The Brotherhood"I understand people swear and can say messed up things but morally the guild had a bit to much and I have heard alot of things I shouldn't have, but I want a little more moderation because it's not really necessary, to me, anyways.

5. What type of role do you wish to take within the guild? How do you plan to be active? Please be specific.*

I'd like a position that involves Intellegence for the Guild, such as spying, information gathering, scouting or anything involved in giving AoL the knowledge it needs to fight. More so, however, I'd enjoy either leading people, small groups or squads, in combat and/or ***Crafting and Selling***6. Why do you feel the Army of Light is a good fit for you?*

Army of Light seems professional, actual active and interested in the personal advancement of their players, who they also look at as brothers and sisters. In first appearance, it is very inviting and I enjoy the things I've read by members down to it's motto.I feel that the players and style here are similar to me, and in them I can grow and help others to grow.

7. What do you expect of the guild? Please be specific.*I expect 4 things in any guild, these are the most critical to me because without them, I usual find myself ending up not enjoying them:Organization: The ability for players to maintain ranks, information, combat formations (RP at times) and be able to have a sense of directionDiscipline: Respect for higher ups, elders, veterans, the ability to receive orders, follow them and ensure them done right. You need to be able to listen and follow if you plan to advance.Communication: One of the most critical, the ability to understand your fellow guildies. It is critical to be able to listen to and understand other people, know what to do, where to do it, how... If there is not contact from one person to the other, things fall into disorder and no one has a sense of whats to be done.Participation: If no one does anything, nothing happens. Members of ANY Guild must participate in the Guild if they expect other players to advance and themselves, in that order. I enjoy helping others but do in some ways expect some, Everyone works for the best of each other.8. Age* (Must be 16+):14, Turning 15 this year, (I hope age isn't a problem but I understand there are some acceptions and I'll let my App show my maturity)

9. Time Zone:*

EST (Eastern Standard Time)

10.Role-Play experience/expectations. Can you give us some examples of Role-Playing you have participated in before. When it comes to expectations, give us an example of what would be fun to participate in, what you are looking for, etc.*I have never fully gotten into a true set of Role-Play but have seen some. To participate I'd like something in combat, diplomacy, trading and the like. I will do alot of work in Roleplay and in like making a story with other for a character.

11. How can you benefit and help the guild? Please include any skills or talents you have that you wouldenjoy doing within the guild. How have you helped your previous guild(s), if you have previous experience?*

I am a good leader and a person to goto for advice or especially encouragement. I am a good Crafter and like Player Marketplaces. I have been an asset to other guild by making the shot that no one expected, a commander turning their back in combat and I not only saved it but gained to ranks by the time they turned. I am pretty good and being sneaky and hiding in game, evading the enemy and taking out objectives when were expected to lose. My style in gaming seems to match the Smugglers Description, to a degree. Except I'm not a lover of money.12. How do you define a quality member?*

A quality member puts the person on their left or right ahead of them. A quality member is a person who can be serious when is necessary and relaxed when it's just the game.A quality member is not judged by level or stats, but by loyalty and commitment.To me, A quality memeber is a person who gives quality to the guild by their presence, over quantity by their deeds.

13. How did you find the Army of Light? Did someone recruit you? If so, please let us know who.*I read about it in the Recruitment forumI heard of the Army of Light through their recruitment thread on the SWTOR Website.

14a.Have you visited our website and chat room, and familiarized yourself with the, Charter, Mission Statement, and Rules of Conduct? (You must answer in the affirmative and please prove that you have)*I have seen the Chatroom, Website:

The Rules of Conduct I've read and I couldn't find a Charter or Mission Statment but read all of the old threads on the Swtor Website and went through the Policies in the Forums.

14b. Do you pledge to fulfill them, most notably to uphold the virtues of Maturity, Honor, Respect, Personal Ethics and No Drama?*

Yes, I pledge to uphold them and fufill them.I Pledge to be mature, be an example of it.Honor my guild and guild mates,Along with repecting them bothand I will use good personal ethics to better my guild and create no Drama within it.

14c. The Army of Light wishes to have members who take the concept of Commitment and Loyalty very seriously. By applying and if accepted, you are taking an Oath to both the guild and your guild-mates here. Is this something to which you can commit?

Yes, Commitment and Loyalty are fueled by a passion/love, to which I have for people.I also do this to the name of my guild.15. Would you say that you embody the qualities of Respect, Honor, Loyalty, and Maturity? What are your definitions of these four words? Please don’t just answer yes or no, let us know why you think you possess these qualities.*

I would say I do, yet, while remaining humble, these four things cannot be confirmed by what I write, but my actions, when the tests come from these, I will prove my worth.I will respect my leaders and fellow guild mates whether considered higher or lower than me, They are just as Human as I, and I as them.I will Honor my guild in my acts and in my speech, I will show the image they represent by personally embodying them. With the way I do things, I bring honor and recognition to the name of my guild.I will be Loyal to my guild and guild-mates, putting the others before myself, and should my allegiance be questioned, I trust my strong morale to keep me faithful.I will be mature and adult in how I handle things.I will not act foolish or childish, consistently seeking the guidance of my superiors and the advice of my fellow guildies. I wont be indirect but stayed focused and proffesional, while still having fun.16. Tell us about a time you offered assistance to someone who did not ask for it but clearly needed it. If you have never had this experience, tell us what you would do if faced with that situation?

For example, in my first MMO, Everquest2, I was running along and saw a mage, wearing cloth armor, going head to head with a mob of about 6-7 NPC's, all who aggroed on her and she appeared to be struggling.I sent in my pet and did so AOE (Area Of Effect Spells) to aggro them off of her. While she ran, my pet and I took down about 4, when she returned, she decimated them in seconds.She was almost the cap level at the time.I ended up receiving a few thanks even though I almost died and she would have been fine. I enjoy doing this sort of thing so whether I die or not, I benefited someone in some way. Making it all worth it.

17. Role-play Scenario (please tell us how you would handle the situation): You are leading a group of 3 others through a forest on a remote moon to destroy an enemy communications relay. Up ahead in a clearing, you happen to spot a small Sith camp. Your group has not yet been spotted by the enemy. You are reasonably well supplied for your mission, including armaments. The clearing containing the Sith camp is not necessarily in your direct path to reach your original mission objective. Attacking the camp could alert the guards at the relay. However, attacking the relay without first dealing with the camp could mean enemy reinforcements from the camp. What do you do?

I'd tell my group to hold position, set some of the explosives in the trees and surrounding area. Upon approaching the relay and engaging the enemy I'd detonate the explosives, not only panicking the outpost, but hopefully starting a fire that would keep enemy at bay or wipe them out. Upon destroying the relay I'd leave the relay area and sneak up on the camp based on if there was a fire or survivors.If survivors, pick them off, if none, call for evac or a bombing run to ensure maximum destruction.

18. In more than 50 but less than 200 words, please describe your personal character and the type of person you are (We wish to get a good feel of the type of person that will be becoming a partof our guild family - a very important question!)*I cannot describe myself without my faith.I have a firm believe in Christianity (Pentecostal)and that governs, or, I try to submit to it, my person. I try to be like Jesus, showing love, compassion and care for people and pray for them and all that goes on. I am usually shown favor by most people and thank God directly for it.I definitely believe my faith is a very big support to my gaming as it keeps me in line and understanding. The person that it cultivates is loving and supportive.

19. Tell us a little about your in-game character*-Character Name: Edenost-Character Physical/Mental Features: Not to strong, little sense of balance and dexterity, very clumsy but lucky and cunning when necessary, not a frontline sort of guy but will to save the others. Mentally inpenetrable, very calm under pressure ( from experience) and very diplomatic by nature. Good at tricking on occasion.-Character Biography:Born on Coruscant to an Ex-Trooper now Merchant and a Chef at a local school, Edenost was a child at the time when the Sith first attacked Coruscant. After his father and mother were captured and presumed death in Sith Hands, he went to live with Cousins on Tython, who, were Jedi and followed the force. Edenost was very intune with the force and offered training as a Jedi Consular, but declined it.Now seeking to gain some revenge on the Empire and defend all that he holds dear, his only death in this war will be taking entire Imperial Worlds out with him. *^Rought Draft without a lot of meat to it.^

20. What is your registered user name on swtor.com?Edenostt^Specifically 2 "t", they would accept it with one.

(Please note that you should have applied at our Guild HQ as a part of this Application process by this point.)~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Very impressive application. To increase your chances of getting in, I might correct some spelling/grammatical errors. Otherwise, like Korvus said, your almost guaranteed to join, we need the smugglers.

Thank you! I look forward to getting in (Hoepfully)I thought I had corrected most of them and will go back in after I realized a few, Spell Check never gets everything!Thanks for the advice and the re-assurance!

The Army of Light does have a 16 years of age plus preferred policy in place. We only make exceptions for extremely advanced applicants with extremely impressive applications.

I would follow the advice others have offered -- clean up/beef up your application wherever you think you can (people here are great at helping by offering suggestions) and check for grammar (ie: acceptions vs. exceptions).

Also, continuing visiting the chat room and get to know members. That will be a very good indication of how we proceed.

Thank you for your interest in The Army of Light.

Warmest regards,High General Jephos Mispir
